"I feel great, you know at this point I used to be living in a sweatsuit. Skipping and training the weight off and dehydrating myself and really depleting myself to make the weight. But making it so much better now and it's much more comfortable and making it with ease at the minute."

Taylor is preparing to take on Jack Catterall in his third defense of his Undisputed Title. The Scot will look to make quick work of his WBO mandatory challenger. Catterall will need to do something extraordinary to dethrone 'The Tartan Tornado'. Currently, all the odds are stacked against Catterall who has comparatively less experience.

He has fought outside the UK just once, and this is his first title shot. He will look to pull off an upset against one of the greatest boxers the UK has ever produced. Taylor has run through the entire division, dominating every opponent. He has taken on the toughest fighters and overcome them with ease.
